Summer 2010 Long-Range Rifle League
at Tri-County Gun Club, Sherwood, Ore.

The Tri-County Gun Club 600 Yard Prone/Bench program will offer fun with a competitive edge this summer with its first Long-Range Rifle
League. And it's not just about camaraderie, trigger time and bragging rights: There'll be prizes, too.

The League is in addition to the usual 600 Yard Prone/Bench program, which offers NRA F-Class-"style" target shooting in a casual atmosphere
and keep-your-own-score format. The main event is held at 9 a.m. on the third Saturday of the month. Also, during summer Daylight Savings Time, a practice session takes place at 5 p.m. on Tuesdays.

Running from June through mid-August, the League will tally the points from your five highest-scoring targets during the period. While you
can shoot as many targets as you like, you have to tally at least five.

The field will be comprised of two classes: Limited and Open. The rules, which cover specifics, can be obtained from the match director; contact information is below.

Shooting dates
June 8, 15, 22, 29
July 6, 13, 17, 20, 27
Aug. 3, 10, 17, 21

Cost
League fee: $15. This is in addition to the yearly $30 annual fee for Tri-County's 600 Yard Prone/Bench program. Please bring cash.

The contest will end with a celebratory picnic at the club and the award of plaques and cash (amount to be determined) to the top-scoring shooters. Prizes donated by top Northwest vendors will be raffled off at the picnic, so even new shooters have a shot at the swag. The loot include a 6.5-20x Leupold riflescope, knives from Benchmade and Gerber, Nosler bullets, certificates for gunsmith services, and more.

If you have never tried the 600 Yard Prone/Bench program, come on out! You'll surely get hooked on the challenge of long-range riflery, and maybe score a sweet trophy or a prize as well. All are welcome: tactical shooters, varminters, benchresters, High Power competitors.

a couple questions for clarification:
for non-members, the total fee would be $45, correct?

all of the dates listed for June are Tuesdays, is that a typo?

I live a few hours away, and would like to compete, but I could only make it on the Saturdays, and maybe one Tuesday practice session. That should give me plenty of opportunity to accumulate the 5 targets, right?

Yes: $15 for the League, $30 annual fee for the TCGC 600 Yard Prone/Bench program.

Tuesdays, correct. Reason being there is a sanctioned Benchrest match at this month's shoot, in the morning on Saturday, June 19. There may be time for 600 Yard Prone/Bench shooting after it wraps up, as well as for new participant orientation.

Saturdays and a Tuesday should indeed give you plenty of opportunities to accumulate five targets for League scoring! Likely more than five.

Thanks for your interest! Hope you can join us.
